I know the idea is ludricous and will never happen. But it's kinda fun to think about. Make all bowls except playoffs a preview of next year. Players in their last year of eligibility could attend the bowl, have a good time, and coach their replacements or whatever. It would solve the opt out controversy. I know some players in their last year of eligibility are wanting to up their draft stock but they've had 12 games to do so.
